Supported by a $20 million gift from Joe C. Wen and his family, the UCI Health outpatient clinical facility at the new UCI Health–Irvine complex will bring specialty clinical expertise closer to coastal and south Orange County residents on the campus in California.
The five-story, 168,000-square-foot outpatient facility will offer adult and pediatric specialty care, urgent care, digestive health, neurosciences and comprehensive laboratory and radiology imaging services at one location. An outdoor garden and café will enhance the patient and visitor experience.
The Center for Children’s Health will consolidate primary and specialty pediatric services in one accessible facility and offer continuity of care from birth through early adulthood.
The building will also be the new home of the Center for Autism & Neurodevelopmental Disorders, providing help to individuals living with autism spectrum disorders, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder and other neurodevelopmental disorders.
In addition to the Joe C. Wen & Family Center for Advanced Care, the Chao Family Comprehensive Cancer Center and Ambulatory Care Center is scheduled to open in late 2023, and a 144-bed acute-care hospital with an emergency department will open in 2025.
